Once I was sitting on my porch and some guy drove by real slowly. As he sped up I yelled, "you need something pal"? He slowed down and motioned for me to come. I expected him to try to start a fight so I went up to him, and realized there was multiple guys all bigger or just as big as me, and I got a little scared. The guy reaches his hand out and I thought he was going to hit me so I jumped back and got into a fake karate position, which made me look very stupid. The guy looked at me confused, and I heard laughter from the back of the car. He was just asking directions to a nearby place. I give him the wrong directions out of anger. As he drove away I saw him ignore my directions and take the right path, he knew the way, he just wanted to see if I knew it. Boy, did I feel stupid.[bookmarkable link]

One day as i was taking a nap in my college dorm room, i awoke to the sound of smacking. As i looked down, i saw my roommate getting "serviced" on the bottom bunk. Not wanting to make the situation awkward for everyone, I just laid there and pretended to be asleep until he was finished. Little to say next time, i'm just going to get up and leave.[bookmarkable link]

My teacher was always mean to me, every morning I was treated like an outcast..she always disrespected me. So one day I decided to inform the principal about this. The principal promised to take care of it. So next morning at school I found a letter on my desk saying "Dear Hosham, I will miss you, truly Miss. Pinkstine." I had the teacher fired. I felt guilty more then anything to be honest. So I went back to the principal to inquire.. it just so happened Miss Pinkstine was an illegal mexican immigrant who was deported back to her country. My complaint triggered an investigation and I was compensated in the process.[bookmarkable link]

It was the dawn of night when we landed in Amsterdam airport. I was very dizzy and my ears were stunned - I honestly felt deaf. So I was in desperate need to use the restroom, I walked into one at the airport whereby I noticed some people laughing at me..I realized after I had walked into a handicap washroom and there was a old man in a wheelchair giving me a dirty look.

I was in my apartment alone and very bored... I hadn't masturbated in months and had nothing better to do, so I decided what the heck. Then in the middle of it all my dog started growling and barking wildly so I hopped up and threw some clothes on, I sat my make-shift toy down which happened to be a tampon in my room and when to see what she was carrying on about.. Nothing. I then got distracted and forgot to toss the tampon. My boyfriend came home later that night and found it and asked me about it, since he never knew I masturbated it was totally humiliating. So akward.. I had to go to bed with my shirt over my head... T.T[bookmarkable link]

In 2008 I went to Monmouth, Illinois to hear a Holocaust survivor speak. Afterwards, I wanted to get a picture with him, so I turned to the woman behind me to see if she would take the picture for me. After I asked her if she would, she politely informed me that she could not do so because she is legally blind. [bookmarkable link]

I'm Scott. So, this past year, I moved to Boston for college and was excited to go out on my own into the city and feel adventurous. So, my first week at school, I took the subway into the city alone, with my over-the-ear headphones listening to "Here I go Again on my Own" on my ipod and feeling FANTASTIC. Then, while I was walking through Quincy Market, I passed by this circle of 8 or 10 very attractive, well-dressed girls of my age. One of them was holding a plate with a fresh, pristine slice of cake on it. As I walked by them, she took the cake, looked at the ground, and then HURLED her FULL SLICE of delicious cake at the ground. Naturally, I walked up to them without even thinking and smiled and yelled, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GROUND!!!!" Immediate silence fell over the group and they stared at me with faces that said, "Surrrrously? What the HELL?" I murmured, "I'm not a part of your system." Silence. I exited their circle and walked back to school. Dirtbags. [bookmarkable link]

One time at Target, I ran into an old friend and her mother from high school. We chatted up a few minutes about the old times in school and the silly things we'd dreamt of doing when we became older. Before we parted ways, I congratulated her on her pregnancy. She slightly smiled and as she walked away her mother gave me a dirty look as she told me that her daughter was not pregnant! Awkward![bookmarkable link]

I was taking a long drive with a few friends. We stopped at a gas station for drinks and bathroom. While we were getting back into the car my friend and I were rough housing. A girl behind us said, "You guys are gonna die!" This girl had just told us the day before that her mother had died through tragic circumstances. My friend replied quickly with an age old joke. "Your mom's gonna die!" I didn't see his face. I wish I had. Instead, I tried to top him. I said, "Yeah! She's already dead, and rigor mortis is setting in!" Immediately I remembered about her mom and saw my friend's face. He was terrified. I looked away from her as fast as possible, put my headphones on and avoided eye contact with her for the rest of the trip. I felt like a monster, and I still don't like thinking about it.

I worked as a waiter in a T.G.I.Friday's for a short time. The clientele was far from my particular cultural comfort zone, so I already felt out of place and awkward most nights. One night I was walking to one of my tables and I saw a young man about to walk into the ladies' room. Being the kind person that I was, I stopped him. "Sir, that's the women's restroom. The men's is right around the corner there. "Then my heart sunk. The man suddenly became a woman and stared at me as if I were trash and walked into the ladies' room. There was no recovering. I just went back to the kitchen and prayed I wouldn't have to see her again. Then I was told that I had a new table. I walked out to it, and there she was ready to give me one more hard stare. I managed to get them food and out the door, but it wasn't easy. I suppose if I had been a little older and wiser I might have had a friend take the table. [bookmarkable link]

During a summer break in high school, I took a trip with some friends. While we were in the airport waiting to board our flight, a couple of my friends started picking on me and another kid for being so white and pale. Both of us happened to be the type of people who couldn’t ever get a tan, no matter how hard we tried. I was pretty touchy about this feature of mine, so I tried to say something that would boost my self-confidence and make it look like I wasn’t bothered by them pointing out how pasty I was. I raised my fist high in the air and yelled out the first thing that came to mind,”White people rule!” As soon as I said it, I knew it was a poor choice of words. I also realized that several people at the gate had heard my exclamation and were now staring at me. I wanted to die. What was meant to be a quick comeback made me look like a racist jerk.

well i was 12 and at my uncles wedding. When the wedding ended my uncle had rented a limo and still had a couple of hours left. He told me go get your sister and cuzend and you guys can drive around in it.I raced to find my sister and cuzend. shortly after i found my sister and told them to meet me in the limo. I continued searching for my cuzend i finally find her and drag her to the limo.When i got in the limo my sister where looking at me funny and when i turn my head to the right it turns out the girl i dragged was not my cuzend but some random girl that had the same dress as my cuzend but that was not the awkward part. the limo driver drove back to the parking-lot to drop her off she refused to get out. NOW THAT WAS A AWKWARD 2 HOUR DRIVE. [bookmarkable link]
